As the old world suffered a devastating blow, various rules no longer existed, and although ancient coins were still being produced, the number was decreasing year by year, and their value was increasing.
The value of this ancient coin in the Old World is roughly equivalent to the value of more than 500 silver coins in Zion.
Having never seen anyone use ancient coins as tips, the clerk was inclined to turn against the two men when he saw how generous they were. He quickly adjusted his eyes, placed his hands flat on his knees, and sat obediently beside them.
"Boss, feel free to ask me any questions I can answer. I will explain them to you clearly."
Yi Chen didn't try to hide anything, and pointed directly at the pickled brain on the plate. "When they talked to me before, they said that they didn't have the qualifications to go to the other side, so they chose to leave. What does the so-called 'qualification' mean?"
"You two came from the other side, so naturally you don't know the rules here.
Let me explain it to you this way~ During the world infection, channels are very valuable and rare, but not all forces can manage channels well.
If our 'patients' want to get to your side, they will have to pay a lot of price, and they may even suffer from difficult-to-eliminate side effects on their bodies due to sudden changes in the environment and the re-assignment of rules during the process of crossing the passage.
but,
If the channel can be expanded, lubricated and fleshed out, the cost can be greatly reduced, or even to the other side at zero cost.
This is what our inn does.
In other words, we are dealing with a special force that is responsible for the transfer of the old world. The transfer business here mainly includes "internal to internal" and "internal to external".
At present, in terms of channel processing technology and level, we can basically rank among the top three in the old world.
Any customer who comes to the "Circular Inn" simply wants to gain the qualification to go to the outside world.
However, since world transfers have strict quantity restrictions, guests who come here not only need to pay enough "channel fees" but also need to undergo "strength review". Only carefully selected guests are eligible to go to the other side.
after all,
Due to the differences in the world, most individuals in the old world will feel obviously uncomfortable and weakened when passing through the channel, and there are often "humans" outside the channel who call themselves monitors, and they are often strong people who have reached the late stage of open source. "
Listening to the other party's description, Yi Chen immediately thought of another ancient word related to the inn - "post station".
“How will the cost of going outside be charged?”
"The fees may be different for different guests. This is something we must keep confidential. Once it is revealed, things will become very bad."
"Then how is the strength review done?"
The waiter pointed to the dishes on the table and said, "We won't tell you this in advance. You could be attacked by us at any time while you're in the inn. As long as you're not made into a dish, it means you've passed the strength review."
Yi Chen also took the opportunity to ask a very direct question, "Then is it possible for us to be made into dishes?"
The clerk waved his hands quickly, "Of course not. The intensity of the disease you two have displayed is already very high. Although you have human attributes in your bodies, we are only doing business and don't have any other thoughts."
"Oh? Then move on to the next question.
The channel should be able to be further expanded, right? What extent can it eventually reach?"
“As I just told you, we will eventually be able to achieve ‘free passage’ for patients with open source and below… At that time, we will also send people to clean up the monitors guarding outside, and even arrange ‘transmission bugs’ that can accommodate individuals between the channels to provide guests with fast and safe transfer services.
Of course, the transfer price of the perfect channel will be several times higher than it is now."
"Got it. So, how do you carry out the 'inside-to-inside' transfer?"
"Inside-to-inside means fast movement within the Old World. We have cultivated super-large burrowing parasites. Currently, we have two of them in our inn, both equipped with internal capsule cabins, which can allow you to safely and quickly reach most unblocked areas.
The specific transfer price needs to be calculated based on the destination, but it is much cheaper than "internal to external", and you two of your status can definitely afford such a price."
"Oh? It's like a subway... Maybe this can be useful.
Then the last question is, what faction do you belong to?"
When Yi Chen asked this question, the clerk's right shoulder moved.
Bang! The shoulder exploded.
A large number of black linear parasites swarmed out, entwined with each other to form the body of a black man, and handed over a special business card.
The business card is made of a very fine parasite woven and hardened, and it feels like an internal stone covered with mucous membranes.
There is a black spiral mark on the front of the business card, and the old words "Black-Ascarid (BA)" are written on the back.
The external manifestation of the internal parasites did not affect the clerk's activities. He continued:
"Our inns and transfer points are spread across various regions of the Old World. If you two have any needs for 'transfer' in the future, you can follow the guidance of the card to find the nearest service point.
As the number of times you use it increases, we will also have a lot of discounts.”
"Okay, I have another small request.
We are friends with the human monitor guarding the entrance to the tunnel. He will probably leave in a month. Since your tunnel expansion is not yet complete, can you try to avoid conflict with him during this month?"
"One month? Our construction period will indeed be a bit longer. I will pass your suggestions on to the store manager."
The clerk left.
Jin was already a little full and looked over through the mask.
"William, what do you think? When do we start?"
"They directly revealed their parasitic nature to me and handed me the business card of the organization behind them, which basically proves that they have no hostility and have accepted my opinion.
Since the other party is a neutral organization responsible for transfer in the old world, as long as it does not infringe on our interests, we should not touch them.
The manager of this inn has not been met so far, so the risk is unknown.
Even if we really raze this inn to the ground and eliminate these parasites, the existence of the passage is immutable, and there will still be other forces stationed here, and the situation may even be worse."
"Why can you change your mind so many times about one thing? Sigh!"
"Well, we'll be staying in the Old World for a long time anyway, so there will be plenty of opportunities to kill aliens. So, why don't we try their transfer service and go directly to the Cancer Palace?"
"Let's give it a try. The Cancer Palace is very deep, and it would take a lot of time to walk there."
The two of them stood up and walked out of the inn. When they stepped out of the door, Yi Chen could clearly feel at least more than twenty eyes fixed on him, but they quickly looked away.
I called the clerk again and asked, "Can we go directly to the Cancer Palace?"
“Would you two like to go to the Cancer Palace? Due to the depth, the cost may be a bit higher.
Furthermore, our organization has not yet obtained the internal authorization of the Cancer Palace, so we can only send you to the 'Pus Lake' which is ten kilometers away from the Cancer Palace."
Jin immediately took over the conversation, "Pus Lake? I am familiar with this. I also walked through the Pus Lake when I first went to the Cancer Palace... That's it, just take us to the lake dock."
"OK."
After some negotiation with the store clerk,
The surrounding sand began to shake, and a black roundworm over a hundred inches long suddenly jumped out, then laid its body flat on its side in front of the inn door.
The passenger transport staff took out the "passenger transport knife" they carried with them and cut the surface of the roundworm, revealing an opening leading to the inner "carriage".
Rows of flesh-and-blood seats with adjustable seat tilt also come into view.
Not to mention, whether it was the humidity, temperature, or the softness and adjustability of the seats, they were all more restrictive than any vehicle Yi Chen had ever taken in his life.
Various novel services are also provided during the journey. It has to be said that this new "Black Ascaris Passenger Transport" is very competitive in the market.
I took little Ah Fei out to play on Sunday night, so I updated the article as usual!
